2006 ANCIEN CHARDONNAY, CARNEROS
I preferred this nose to that of the Beringer Private Reserve Chardonnay which followed it. Rounded and fruity with some butter or vanilla but not flabby in texture. Juice sits on oak for 2 1/2 years.
Bottle available for $36.00

2007 BERINGER PRIVATE RESERVE CHARDONNAY, NAPA VALLEY
This had a toasty smell/nose. Plenty of oak, but balanced. Long finish. Slight white pepper note. Wine Spectator wine of the year in '94. Only white wine to be named WS wine of the year. Bottle available for $31.05.
